Almost as expected

December 15, 2013

I should start by saying that we used a Keyfit for our last 2 babies and have 2 Britax convertible seats purchased in 2007. All of our car seats are expired and baby number 3 is on the way so I ordered a new Keyfit and figured I would give this a try for our 14 month old.
I love that the seat seems very sturdy and safe and like that it has many recline options.
I don't like that it takes me 3 times longer to load my 14 month old in this seat vs the Britax. With baby number 3 on the way I don't have time for this. The straps are difficult to pull tighten down. It does not have velcrow to secure the straps on the outside of the seat when loading in and out so they are constantly stuck under him. In general the straps seem shorter than in other seats and not long enough to flop over the edges. It is also a really deep seat which I'm assuming adds safety but it makes it harder to get a sleeping baby out because I have to dig under him and lift further.
There is nothing wrong with this seat it's just not as user friendly as others. I think it will ge easier to use once my son is bigger but for now I'm making my husband use it while I find an alternative.

Pros:

Safety

Cons:

Short Straps
Hard to adjust
Deep seat

EXCELLENT CARSEAT!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

November 3, 2013

THIS CHICCO CARSEAT IS VERY VERY CUSHIONY AND THE RED FABRIC LOOKS EVEN BETTER QUALITY THAN THE PICTURE. MADE VERY DURABLE. THE BACK OF THE CARSEAT STRAP CUSHIONS HAVE GRIPPERS AND ARE AMAZING!! I PICKED THIS CARSEAT BC IT WAS A DIFFERENT COLOR THAN ANY I HAD SEEN IN STORES. THE COLOR IS A LITTLE MORE RED THAN IN THIS PICTURE. I WILL DEFINATELY CONTINUE TO PURCHASE CHICCO ITEMS FOR THE FACT THEY ARE ALL EASY TO USE AND BEST QUALITY STUFF!! ITS A LITTLE PRICEY BUT SOO WORTH IT IN THE LONG RUN SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY SEVERAL CARSEATS. THIS ONE GOES UP TO LIKE 35 OR 40 LBS I BELIEVE SO WILL LAST A LONG TIME! THE HEAD REST MOVES UP WITH THE TOUCH OF A BUTTON AS THEY GROW. THE CARSEAT STRAPS EVEN ADJUST ON THEIR OWN. SO NO MOVING THE STRAPS AS YOUR CHILD GROWS. I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT HOW GREAT I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!! SIMPLY EASY AND THOUGHTFUL IN THE MANUFACTURE THAT MADE THIS! AWESOME!!!!!!

LOVE my Chicco Carseats

November 1, 2013

I had a Keyfit 30 infant seat and was sad that Chicco didn't have a convertible seat, as my DD approached the limit not long ago. Finally my hopes were fulfilled, and they came out with this seat. I bought one immediately from another retailer for my 2011 Honda Pilot. It is just as easy to install as the Keyfit base was. It has the same built-in level and has multiple recline positions. The straps have been hard to move at first, when compared to the Keyfit infant seat. However, when it came time for my mother to get a convertible seat for her car, we tried another, less expensive seat/brand, and were seriously disappointed. We ended up returning that seat immediately and buying this one for her 2010 Honda Accord and a third one for my husband's 2003 Pilot. The quality is beyond compare. My DD is secure and comfortable, but the thing that sold me immediately and has made me a die-hard Chicco fan is the fact that they are SO easy to install. If it's not isntalled properly, the child cannot be safe.

Pros:

Easy, easy, easy to install. Fits VERY well in a sedan (Honda Accord). We don't even have to move the passenger seat up to accomodate it. We did have to move the seat up in the Pilots, but an adult (5'8") passenger can still fit comfortably in the front seat.

Cons:

It is heavy. This is not a seat that you're going to easily move from one car to another. However, what we found was that it was worth the investment in additional seats for other vehicles just because it's such a sturdy and well-made seat.

Love it! Fits the car, fits the baby, easy install

October 30, 2013

In the great debate over safety versus ease of use, this car seat has done the best so far and achieves both. I originally got a Recaro convertible but that did not fit in my car well (Audi A4) and it now resides in my husband's car (4Runner). I really like our Chicco Keyfit for the infant seat but this one feels so much more secure and safe. The versatility with the recline has made if the easiest install of a seat in my car yet. I haven't tried forward facing, but know that there are enough options that it will work. The second pull on the latch strap is a great development. If I had to move this from car to car every day or on occasion, it's much easier than other's I have tried.

Best Uses:

everyday use, travel, multiple vehicles, small cars

My son seems very comfy and secure in his new seat. I love how it has a pivoted recline and doesnt take up much room. Also, i love how it is very very soft n padded. only con is i dont see him getting the full 65lb weight with this one, but at a 195.00 price...its worth every penny!!!

Pros:

Pivoted recline, nice color, very soft padding, very sturdy, easy to install with bubble level indicator, doesnt take up much room.

Cons:

Dont think a child will get the full 65lb weight with this one

Awesome seat...

January 28, 2015

It's and awesome car seat with a very easy install. Wish they had both latch buckles the same...the left one is a bit frustrating when the seat is installed on passenger side but it does work with good planning. The cup holder does not fit much if anything at all...none of our sip cups or bottle fit at all. The straps are a bit frustrating when they puddle in the seat when you take your bundle out...cannot wait to get our CX model that apparently remedies that one. It's the best car seat and we have been swapping back and forth between a corolla and sienna for the past 8 months and takes 5 minutes at best to remove and install once you have a plan set where latch straps need to be adjusted. We started out rear facing and did the transition and this seat worked out beautifully. We did opt for a second because you just cannot always be the one to pick up the kiddo when you dropped them off...life happens and even though they are expensive, it's worth every penny for good protection and I honestly feel this car seat delivers my child safely to and from home.

Cons:

Cup holder does not fit anything we have at all...should have been adjustable

Love this sleek & comfy seat!

January 28, 2015

I bought this on preorder when it first came out 2 years ago for my then 1 yr old daughter and still love it. When choosing a child restraint for my daughter, I literally went to a local baby department store to test them all out. I had a lot of requirements on my wish list for a child restraint to tell you that I am very picky. This seat met all of my requirements with extra padded comfort, no rethread harness, multiple recline & relatively compact for small spaces. After using it a few months and taking it on a vacation trip, I found that the only things I complained about were the shoulder pads & the length of the crotch strap. Chicco customer service was excellent in replacing them for me with the new Oct 2013 updated set and at no cost to me. I also found it very easy to take the cover off for washing when so many have complained about it. Also about the straps not being long enough to hang on the sides, I found it to be untrue. I am able to place the buckle tongs into the sides of the car seat when not in use to prevent having to dig them up from under my daughter's bum. I place the buckle tongs in between the cover and the plastic siding. Anyways, we loved it so much that we've had 3 of them (mystique, gemini & zip palisade). I'm proud to say that thanks to the Chicco NextFit, my now almost 3 yrs old daughter at ~35.5" and 30.2 lbs is still rear-facing!

Pros:

Cons:

Best Uses:

For all ages from 5 lbs premie to 40 lbs preschooler rear-facing. Then to 50" height and 65 lbs forward-facing.

Great Car Seat!

January 23, 2015

We had a Chicco infant seat 7 years ago with my son. Loved it, but unfortunately Chicco didn't make convertible seats at the time. Now we have another child, and I was thrilled to see they came out with convertible seats! We bought one for my husband's car once our 3 month old started going to daycare. I love this seat. It's is so incredibly padded/protected. Easy to install, easy to get her in and out. We definitely plan on buying another one for my car once she outgrows her infant seat.

This is the best car seat out there! I like it better then britax! I bought one of these two years ago for my two-year-old and he loves this car seat! He fits very comfortable in it. The fabric is very soft and easy to take off and clean. I just bought another car seat for my one-year-old and he loves it as well! It comes with a nice Cupholder that can attach on either side. I feel very safe with both of my kids in these car seats. I love how the shoulder pads are removable now. The installation can't be any easier. It's got a nine position recline which I love! If you're having any doubts about this car seat don't because it is a amazing car seat!!!

So far so good! We just received the car seat and we are happy with the size and fit. Our son is a very large 11 months old and he seems much more comfortable in it than his previous seat, which he has obviously outgrown. We had the Chicco Keyfit 30 and LOVED it, so this was the obvious next step.

The best convertible car seat on the market

January 16, 2015

So easy to install, I did it while 7 months pregnant. We bought the Chicco Keyfit 30 infant car seat for one car and this one for the second. Now that my little man is 7 months old, I'm so glad we bought both. Seeing that he's now 20 lbs, It's been difficult carrying him in the infant car seat by myself. My husband still uses it, but I prefer to carry him and buckle him into the Nextfit. It's perfect for him and he seems to love being in it. I love the Mystique color.

Totally satisfied - Seat cover can be washed!

January 11, 2015

I read reviews of this car seat and was worried about issues with harness. I really liked chic brand and I was nervous if i will have to return this. The car seat is the version in which this issue is corrected. Also one thing most reviews don't tell is that the car seat cover can be removed and washed. Its not as easy as in next fit zip, but its washable. Look for videos in youtube. I wanted to get a car seat that can be washed as we had to do this a couple of times with keyfit. It fits tight in the middle row of my van, rear facing. You really feel its big, when rear facing. But my kid feels really comfortable in this. I am totally satisfied.

Great seat!

January 9, 2015

We purchased this seat when my son was about 20 months old. It replaced another convertible that was very difficult to install, I needed something that my husband could install easily in multiple vehicles without becoming frustrated. I was also very impressed by the high height/weight maximums for rear facing. The install is so easy, by far the easiest convertible install I've come across. It is a little heavy to move between vehicles, but even at 7 mos pregnant I have no problems moving it. The wide range of inclines makes this seat work well in any vehicle. The straps were difficult to adjust in the beginning but after a while they became easier and we have no problem now. My son is now almost 3 and still comfortably rear facing, he has plenty of legroom and more room to grow.

Pros:

Easy Install
Spacious
Long lasting in RF mode

Cons:

Weight

Safe and secure

December 15, 2014

Having only bought Britax seats in the past, I was hesitant to purchase the Chicco seats for our 8 month old twin girls. We love these seats! They remind me of pods and our girls are very well protected. The seat material is incredibly cushy and there is plenty of slack available on the harness straps to easily get our daughters in and out of the seats (a problem we had with our Graco carrier and why we switched to convertible seats so early). My husband was pleased with the two step installation and said the seats were super easy to install. All in all, we're very happy with these seats.

Protected our baby in rollover crash!

December 8, 2014

We bought this car seat several months ago after much research. It seemed like it was one of the safest car seats out there, and after testing this one and a few others in a store, I decided this one was my favorite (one reason being that I could not get the Britax seats to recline, a problem I had with my son 7 years ago).
Well, this Friday this seat was put to the test. Our truck went off the road at 75mph and rolled several times, totaling the truck. My baby's door was ripped away and the roof was crushed. All she had was a cut on her head! This car seat (and God) protected her so well! Somehow all of us walked away with only minor injuries, but she had fewer than any of us!
We will be ordering another one of these for sure!

I have a large 8 month old and needed to purchase a convertible to replace his infant carrier. I have the Chicco Keyfit 30 and really liked it and wanted to stick with the Chicco brand but didn't know if I could afford this one. I ended up purchasing another less expensive one the day before I found this one on sale. I decided I had to have this one so I bought it and took the other one back. So glad I got this one! It is so comfortable my son falls asleep in it every time I put him in. My mother in law is the carseat technician at the hospital and absolutely loves this carseat.

Pros:

*Easy to install.
*Plush and oh so comfortable. (I would purchase the adult version for myself if possible!)

Cons:

*It is a little stiff to pull tight when you first install it but I am sure will get better with time.
*Hard to get my little guy out because I have a smaller car and he is in the center and it is deep, which is amazing for comfort but makes it difficult to remove baby.

I bought a chicco infant carrier for my first son after much research on the safety and ease of use of infant seats. I ended up loving it. I was devastated that they did not have a convertible car seat when he outgrew his infant seat. With my second son, this stay was available so I ordered it right away. Once again I am very pleased with the solidity and ear of use. This seat looks fantastic and is super soft. It's also heavy which I like because it seems like it would hold up in an accident. I have always felt car seats are not something to skimp on. That is why I bought this seat. You will not be disappointed!

excellent car seat

September 30, 2014

This seat is excellent for rear-facing past 2yo. The AAP recommends rear facing to at least age 2, and the NHTSA recommends rear facing to as close to age 4 as possible. Why? Because the spine does not harden until 4-6yo. This makes the spine of a younger child much easier to snap in an accident with a FF child where the head snaps forward (whiplash), in an accident where a child rear faces, the head and neck are cradled. You can RF in this seat until your child is (a) 40lb, (b) 50" tall, or (c) when their head is closer than 1" to the top of the headrest when it is fully extended. This will see most average sized children RF to 4yo. It will be outgrown by weight before height in most circumstances.

Cons:

only one thing is a little big for compact cars

Excellent car seat and very comfy

September 19, 2014

We moved from a Chicco Key Fit Magic car seat to the NextFit Convertable Car Seat when my daughter was 20lbs. We loved the Key Fit Magic as it was easy to install and we could easily move from car to stroller. This gave us a lot of confidence in Chicco. Great news is I really think she likes the NextFit better than the Key Fit. There seems to be much more padding and the design seems cozy. Often she will get fussy when she gets put in her car seat but I have found this reduced with the NextFit. I am also really excited that this car seat will last us for a long time. The design is very modern and I think compares to all the ultra-trendy brands. I love all the color choices as I was able to pick the one that went best with my car. I have noticed that the pull strap for tightening the seat belt is a bit more firm than the last model but I don't mind at all -- it allows for more control. Installation (using LATCH) was also much easier as they have a "super tightener" system that works well.

Pros:

Very comfortable
Stylish car seat
Easy to install

Cons:

I don't like that they put the Chicco logo right in the middle of the head rest. It's not as soft as the car seat material. Baby doesn't seem to mind but I just thought it was a strange choice since baby's head covers the logo anyway.

Best Uses:

Car seat that you wont need to move from car to car or car to stroller often. It will grow with your child.

I bought this car seat for my first son when he was 6 months old. I loved the Chicco KeyFit car seat and was thrilled when they can out with the car convertiable car seat. So when we had our second son we had to buy the same car seat. They boys love the car seats. Them seem to be comfortable for them.it is easy to clean and install once you get the hang of it. It is however a very heavy car seat but once it's in the car that's not an issue. I will certainly buy this car seat again if we have more children! Great investment.

I love my key fit infant seat, but I have had Britax car seats for my other older children. I was excited to try out Chicco's new convertible seat, but I wish I had gone with a Britax!!!
My husband does say that the NextFit is the easiest car seat he has ever installed, but we just don't take it out that often for that factor to outweigh the others. Our Britax seats were not too difficult to install anyway.
My biggest complaint is that my child does not sleep comfortably in this seat! Next to safety, I think ability to sleep in the car seat is the biggest concern when purchasing a new seat. My four year old is in the seat forward facing and her head flops forward to her chest when she sleeps --and this is with the seat at it's MOST reclined position.
Next, the seat is difficult to tighten. The cinching strap at the bottom gets "stuck" and is difficult to get tight.
The high sides, make it more difficult to get the child into the seat as well.
Go with a Britax instead!

We love this car seat. It's so easy to install, versatile for many kids of all shapes and size and age, desirable design, love the cup holder and it's ability to transfer sides.
